Vermont Fill In The Blank Company

Vermont Teddy Bear Company.
Vermont Furniture Company.
Surround something with trees and hippies and suddenly it's more expensive, stronger and somehow virtuous.

What about the Vermont Killer Robot Company? Where's the virtue now, hippies?

There is such a thing as the Vermont Killer Robot Company, however, they changed the name to General Dynamics. You failed to mention The Vermont Sandwich Company in your diatribe of hatred against All Things Vermont. From where I sit, here in a safe town in the aforementioned "State You Hate" (tm), it would appear that are guilty of gross mismanagement of your thoughts if you are under the impression that Vermonters are hippies. I'm not certain that people even use that term anymore, but I digress. If you think about it (oh go ahead...TRY), there are more hippies per capita in Manhattan than there are here in The Green Mountain State. Do some research and get back to me if you'd like to launch an adorable counter-revolution and prove me wrong. Until then, I'll be here, snacking on Cabot Cheese and drinking a cup of coffee from Green Mountain Coffee Roasters. But I won't be wearing anything from the Burlington Coat Factory. Ever.
